30. Haliomma compactum, n. sp. (Pl. 28, figs. 5, 5a).
Cortical shell very thick walled, four times as broad as the thin walled medullary shell; pores of the former irregular, roundish, with high polygonal frames of very different size, twice to four times as broad as the bars. Inner shell with simple, small, polygonal pores, connected with the outer shell by eight (?) regularly disposed thin radial beams, opposite in pairs, prolonged outside into strong conical spines, longer than the radius.
Dimensions.—Diameter of the outer shell 0.08, inner 0.02; outer pores 0.005 to 0.01, inner 0.005; length of the spines 0.06, basal breadth 0.012.
Habitat.—Central Pacific, Stations 265 to 272, depth 2425 to 2925 fathoms.
31. Haliomma permagnum, n. sp.
Cortical shell thick walled, six times as broad as the medullary shell, with irregular, roundish, double-edged pores, three to six times as broad as the bars. Inner shell with regular, circular pores, twice as broad as the bars. One hundred and twenty to one hundred and fifty radial spines, conical, only one-fourth as long as the radius.
Dimensions.—Diameter of the outer shell 0.42, inner 0.07; outer pores 0.012 to 0.025, bars 0.004; inner pores 0.008, bars 0.004; length of the spines 0.05, basal breadth 0.03.
Habitat.—Central Pacific, Station 268, surface.
32. Haliomma patagonicum, n. sp.
Cortical shell thick walled, four times as broad as the medullary shell, with irregular, roundish pores, twice to three times as broad as the bars. Inner shell also with irregular, roundish pores, of half the size. Forty to fifty radial spines, cylindro-conical, about as long as the shell diameter.
Dimensions.—Diameter of the outer shell 0.24, inner 0.06; outer pores 0.012 to 0.02, bars 0.006; inner pores 0.005 to 0.01, bars 0.004; length of the spines 0.3, breadth 0.02.
Habitat.—South-east Pacific, west coast of Patagonia, Station 302, surface.
33. Haliomma clavatum, n. sp.
Cortical shell thick walled, three times as broad as the medullary shell, with irregular, roundish pores little larger than the bars; eight to twelve on the radius. Inner shell with similar but smaller pores. About twenty radial spines, club-shaped, as long as the radius, three-sided, with prominent edges, twice as broad at the distal end as at the base. (Similar to Acanthosphæra clavata, Pl. 26, fig. 8, but differs from it in the possession of a medullary shell.)
Dimensions.—Diameter of the outer shell 0.2, inner 0.06; outer pores and bars 0.008 to 0.02, inner 0.006 to 0.01; length of the spines 0.1, distal breadth 0.03.
Habitat.—Central Pacific, Station 265, depth 2900 fathoms.
